Metric bolt sizing. Full designation would be written as M10 x 1.5 x (Lgt.
in mm ex. 30). M10 bolts like our Course & Fine series have four different,
common pitches. Pitch is the distance from crest to crest of the threads in
mm. Course, is 1.5 mm pitch, Medium is 1.25 (common pitch for spark plugs)
Fine is 1 mm and XFine is .75.

American bolt sizes are normally called by Dia. and TPI ie: 1/4 x 20 x Lgth.
The 20 is in Threads per Inch or TPI. In US the pitch is the distance crest
to crest of the threads and is normally given as 0.XXX". Actually not usually
given unless included in a specification drawing. Information courtesy of Bill
